|
You used to be so fancy free |
|
Now you hardly look at me |
|
You sweep the leaves out the road |
|
And count the snowflakes when it snows |
|
Let's cut away the undergrowth |
|
Of a love that hurt us both |
|
You stroked the cat when it purred |
|
But go to sleep without a word |
|
Let's work this out tonight |
|
Sort out every silly fight |
|
Now whistle half a love's duet |
|
'Cause half a love is all you get |
|
When you don't play your part |
|
When you broke my heart |
|
The wind howled through the corridors |
|
Of a heart that still adores |
|
Life with you when it's so good |
|
Is a lesson learnt and understood |
|
Love can make you feel a fool |
|
Love's unkind and lovers are cruel |
|
You make me wish I were dead |
|
But I go and feed the cat instead |
|
And I can't cope with being unhappy |
|
When I know what makes me happy |
|
And I love loving you |
|
But I can't cope with what it makes me do |
